The Knowledge with David Elikwu

Going deep: The Battle Between Horizontal and Vertical WorkIn this episode of 'The Knowledge,' host David Elikwu dives into the dichotomy between horizontal and vertical models of engaging with the world. Using Donald Knuth's drastic life decision to quit email in 1990 as a starting point, David explores the philosophical implications of being either on top of things or at the bottom. The episode draws on historical and contemporary examples, from ancient philosophies to modern neuroscience, and includes insights from notable figures like Isaac Newton and Leonardo da Vinci. David emphasises the value of deep, focused work versus the appeal of staying broadly informed and connected, ultimately challenging listeners to identify the one thing so compelling to them that it is worth digging deep for.00:00 Introduction and Overview00:19 Donald Knuth's Decision to Quit Email01:53 Horizontal vs. Vertical Thinking02:17 The Horizontal Model: Staying on Top of Things04:07 The Vertical Model: Going Deep05:49 Historical Perspectives on Depth vs. Breadth20:21 The Balance Between Horizontal and Vertical24:10 Conclusion: Finding Your FocusSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-knowledge-with-david-elikwu/donations
